We selected Vue Cardio PACS because it supports fully featured viewing, reading and management for all types of cardiology exams including echo cardiograms, ECG, cath lab and
nuclear cardiology exams on a single workstation, said Jason Scott, Witham's Director of Imaging and Cardiac Diagnostics.

An IAEA study (10) established that approximately 80% of cardiovascular deaths occur in developing nations and suggested that regional training centres could reduce such morbidity by disseminating instruction, allowing increased utilisation of
nuclear cardiology. As shown below, tele-nuclear medicine can greatly increase such training centres' effectiveness.
With a broad, technologically advanced portfolio, sub-specialties include the cardiac cathlab, cardiovascular imaging, electrophysiology, cardiology IT and
nuclear cardiology.
